Siren learning with the French individual (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lorelei

'siren' is the definition.
(Lorelei is an example)

'learning with the french individual' is the wordplay.
'learning' becomes 'lore' (I've seen this before).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'the french' becomes 'le'.
'individual' becomes 'i'.
'lore'+'le'+'i'='LORELEI'

(Other definitions for lorelei that I've seen before include "alluring female" , "Rhine rock of siren legend" , "A dangerously attractive lady" , "High rock in the Rhine gorge" , "Bloody singer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
